I was feeling a bit feisty last night and thought it might be interesting to have a good talk about what grafting can and cannot accomplish.

Some of you may recall that Territorial Seeds started selling grafted tomato plants last year, and there's a thread at Tville about that.

But what I want to do is to give some links about tomato grafting and note that it's loghouse that's supplying the plants to Territorial and yes, some with more than one scion a single rootstock.

Territorial is sold out for 2012 for all but the Brandywine grafted one, but you can read what they say are the plusses of grafted plants, which mostly comes from the place that provides them with the plants:

THe above link provides more details on what grafting can, and by exclusion, cannot accomplish.

And now to go watch tennis from the Olympics, which has been outstanding, but quite a few of you already know my passion for tennis.
